there found nearly 200 Angora goats
camped for the night on rocks about
thirty feet east of and below the summit
They were in full sight of Tahoe and the
best ciews from the summit. There was
fine, green mountain pasture, soft soil
bedding and shelter down below them a
mile or two. but they preferred the rocks
of the summit and the keener sir and
magnificent mountain pictures. Their
bed was nearer the stars, and they would
have the very earliest sight of the morning
sun. Four hundred of this breed of goats
were. five years ago, every one killed by
lightning near the same spot. They were
the property Of the same owner, Mr.. Gil
more Of Glen Alpine Springs. Many OF
them were pure or half pure breeds. The
herd was worth at least 81, 900. They
were dead several days before they were
discovered so that no: even their pelts
were saved.
These goats are not herded; they take
care of themselves altogether, and except
for being salted-that is, supplied with
salt TO Ii X twice Il week-they get no care
or watching. They are shorn once year
and yield three 10 four pounds of mohair,
which is worth fifty cents pound. No
hair is used very largely for railroad car
cushions. Seven years ago there were no
mohair factories in the United States:
now there are some forty Of them. But
for the disaster named Mr.. Gilmore would
now have herd of about 1000.

Mr.. Howard spoke with little effort and
in an ordinary tone, using no gesture.
The subject was "Cranksh Mr.. Howard
said that CrankS. rs a rule, were people
who held opinions contrary to those held
by the majority. These opinions, while
being very good at times, were not &C
cepted by common humanity because
common humanity could not understand
them All the great inventors were con-
sidered cranks. Fulton was considered u
crank, yet in history he is revered and
looked upon Us a great man. Elias Howe,
the inventor of the sewing machine,
which was Of great benefit to hundreds OF
thousands of women, was a crank. His
fellows spoke slightingly of him when he
was engaged in perfecting his great in
vention, but he lived 10 enjoy the fruits
of his brain and sagacity. Eli Whitney
was a or. ak, yet he did great service for
mankind. The most scientific men of
the age in which Professor Morse lived
pronounced him to be crank, vet his
name is now surrounded by a bright halo
in the history of our country.
The lecturer referred to other men
who were bencfactOrs and inventors who
were stigmatiZed as cranks. He said that
there were several hundred men in New
York city who are worth millions OF dol
lars and who work harder than men in
their employ so that they may add to their
fortune. They wanted TO be the richest
men on earth. They were undoubtedly
cranks on this one subject-that of money
making. A I. Stewart wanted TO be the
great American merchant prince, and he
was. He conceived the idea Of erecting a
magnificent white marble business build

subject, and he had his way. Yet he

To the Editor of the GLoBE-RErrBLIC:
noticed in the New York Frcic PrcsSe
that in the city of New York the habit OF
treating is going more and more out of
fashion. This would be very desirable il
applied everywhere. for this American
abuse. which is very expensive, causes
many to drink more than they intend, and
more than is good for them. Can il not
soon be abolished altogether? We can
safely say that the habit of treating in this
city has been reduced One-half since the
close OF the war. but how soon this great
evil and nuisance will cease altogether, re-
mains TO be seen. There is nothing in it
either for the seller or those that drink
How often can We see half dozen or a
dozen go into a saloon and get TO treating
each other. 0ne-half will get drunk; some
have no money to pay, and tell the saloon
keeper TO put 'em on the slate" This he
often refuses TO do and demands his pay.
The upshot is fuss and quarrel, and a

that he was even indisposed when the news
of his death flashed over the wires and
thousands of people stood aghast at the
sudden change from health and vigor to
cold and silent death. For the past twOnty-

THURSDAY EVENING. JANUARY 6. 1887
spRINGFIELp REPUBLIC.

This paper resumes its old and time
honored name today. II has been the
staunch and faithful local organ of the re-
publican party ever since the organization
of the party in Springfield and Clark coun-
ty today, and the leading republican paper
in the Eighth congressional district; il
will maintain its position as such in all
these respects henceforth; and We shall use
our best efforts to restore republican ma
jorities in the city, county and district, to
the largest figures ever heretofore known.
We expect to accomplish this result by
promoting harmony, unity and cOnsolds-
ton in the republican ranks; by doing what
we can 10 put the party on broad and
popular basis, by urging the rank and file
of our party-the high priyates, the masses
of the organizatiOn-to come to the front
and take the management of the party into
their own hands.
True republicaniSm is inimical 70 bossism
and bcodleism--and true republicans will re
sent the attempts of all individuals or even
of factions. to dictate as to how they
will vote. or to attempt TO influence
them with money. A free. pure ballot,
honestly counted. represents the true re-
publicanism of the period. Republicans
are in favor of popular form of govern
ment and of popular methods of nominal
ing and electisg all officers.
The REPUBLIC will maintain its stand
ing and reputation as the advocate of
Springfield interests. 1t will DO its best 20
promote the prosperity Of the city-of its
tradesmen, its manufacturers. its working
men, and its citizens Of all honest and
decent classes. It mas done its full part,
as public Journal. for its own city in times
past and it will continue its efforts in the
same line.

A sHREwD GAME.

The New York Star is very smart pa
per. II is as handsome as handsome can
be. and well arranged and edited, and,
therefore, the sort of paper which every
newspaper man, irrespective of his politics
or religion, likes TO pick UP and look over,
II is democratic, from hundred years back
Of its birth, rock-ribbed and irOn-clad, and
is as near being the sTgan of this monde
script administration as any paper in the
country can be. and a little nearer. Mr..
Dorsheimer, the editor and proprietor. is an
old Buffalo man and was companion and
friend of Mr.. Cleveland when he was only
a young land possibly iaek-legged) lawyer,
in the city named, and continued his social
relations with him as sheriff and governor.
He may, therefore, be suspected as sustain
ing very close relations with the admins
tration, if not of issuing his paper from
uRder the very shadow of the throne.
Now what does this smart and Shrewd
editor proceed TO do, in the most elaborate
and cold-blooded way? He gets up his
Daily Star newspaper. in the most attrac-
tive and acceptable form, and sends it to
thousands Of country weekly newspapers in
exchange, with no bills for the difference
in price, and the editor of each Of the thou
sands considers himself the subject of the
especial favor of the great Star man. So
h thinks there must be something in it,
aud reads each issue very carefully. A
moiety at least Of these favored rural
Journalists are republicans, and although
this Star blaZeS, constantly, continuOusl y
and fiercely, for free trade they first de-
spise and then pity, and then some Of them
20 in and embrace as vigorously as il they
had discovered lOng-lOst be-roth- er, with a
livid strawberry mark on his arm and four
on his leg.
Thus is the principle Of protection elas-
orately, but insinustingly. aSsailed and re-
acrselessly stabbed in the very house and
citadel Of its friends, in this most beguiling
way, resulting in the silencing sf protection
batteries.
Ii is strange. indeed, that the more in
telligent and intellectually vigilant of these
lists, do not 'SmelI a mice" or discover the
murderous cat in this newspaper meal-bag,
and steel their hearts against the ingenious
sophistry and the attractive wiles of this
most insidious but dangerous foe to the
great principle of protection to American
manufacturers and workingmen.
We do not blame tfle Stdr. We commend
il, a. one OF the children of this wicked
world, for working its game Shrewdly, but
we do blame intelligent republicans for tax
ing in great political heresy, not by pro-
cess of reasoning. but by mere absorption!

Star,

hat STANLEY Has Dane,

The Staney, however, who has executed
he feat Of putting Africa together like a
puzzle as il never was put together before
has become a man something like ~ OF 80
years old, | should think II is said here
that when he first went out he expected
to marry a rich, young and stylish woman
in New York. Before he returned, how
ever, she had taken a husband, and see
her every now and then at the seaside
places with her husband, who is an atten-
tive man, while her children have grown
up to be big and hearty and some of them
are perhaps now marriageable. If Stan
ley had remained around the newspaper
offices of New York getting silly orders to
go here and there. these very orders in
tended perhaps to break him up and de-
stroy his self respect and continuity, we
should now be looking at very ordinary
fragment or has been.
His feat of descending the Congo from
the sources OF the Nile or thereabouts to
the Atlantic ocean marked his recognition
by a higher range of people He told us
at the Lotos club that It was Edwin
Arnold, the poet, author OF THE Light of
Asia, who prevailed on Mr. Levy, the
Hebrew who owns The London Telegraph,
TO offer Stanley the task and the money.
Levy concluded he would undertake it il
Bennett would come in. He telegraphed
Bennett, who replied after hesitation that
he would help. SO these two newspapers,
one in New York and one i'll London. sent
Stanley to do that work which was better
done than any work has ever been done
in Africa 10y any other traveller. Man
kind owes to the newspaper organization
its knowledge today Of the route OF
the river Congo and the consequent at
tempts TO make trade and TO galvanize and
civiliZe Africa. But after shat feat Mr.
Stanley was probably done for as n news
paper correspondent. The two news
papers naturally did not much agree
The paper which had first sent Stanley
out probably had a kind Of grudge that
somebody else had appreciated him.

We have understood. from a very trust
worthy SOmce. that the Rev. Wilton X.
Boone, the able. accomplished and ener-
getic pastor of the Second Baptist church
of this city, has received fiattering call to
become the spiritual guide of Baptist
church in Augusta, Georgia. Whether the
call has been accepted, We are not able now
to say. But this much We do say: that, in
our Judgment, the Second Baptist church,
and, indeed. the colored citizens generally.
will make grave mistake if they allow
Mr.. Boone to leave this community or the
church We have watched the course of
Mr.. Boone with interest. No man among
his race is more highly respected here. both
by white and colored citizens, and no man
has labored harder to build up the church.
If our information is correct, there is a debt
of several Thousand dollars upon the bean
tiful edifice which has been erected under
Mr.. BoOne's administration, and it will Ger
tainly prove detrimental TO the financial in
terests of the church for pastor and people
to sever relationship until the Indebtedness
is entirely removed.

We give below portion of what Mr..
Gladstone has to say by way of correcting
what Mr.. TenDyson uttered in his new
poem, "Locksley Hall-FOrty Years After. "
of decadence and deplored democracy. Mr..
| Gladstone sums up. as follows:
In forty years, slavery has been abolished.
The rigors of the old criminal code have
disappeared. The combination of laws
which prevented the working population
from obtaining the best price for their labor
has been repealed; the abuses of the poor
law have been done away with; the labOreT
has better security for life and limb, and
fuller assurance of the compensation of
survivors in case of death; the scandals of
labor in mines and factories have been re-
moved or reduced. The people have good
schools. and are under legal obligation to
use the privilege. Postage has been
cheapened. and information through free
press. which was formerly cut off from the
multitude by stringent tax. is now at easy
command. They are more lightly taxed.
and taxes are paid to the state for needful
government, instead of TO the wealthy
classes for enhancing the price of articles

POLICE CoMMIssIONEH BOYLE.

We have already given expression TO Our
pleasure at the appointment of our old
friend. James Boyle. of the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette. as police commission
er, by Governor Foraker, and we have paid
no attention TO the newspaper talk about
| his not being a citizen. because we believed
the talk TO be absurd and hardly worthy of
denial. Mr.. Boyle is not only very well
qualified in ali respects for the position
for which he did not ask or seek-but he is,
as almost everybody knew at the outset-a
citizen of the United States and therefore
eligible We copy, with good degree of
satisfaction, the following, from the Com
mcrctdl Gdzette, on Mr.. Boyle's citizen
ship:
There is no truth whatever in the report
that Police Commissioner Boyle is not a
citizen of the United States. The fact that
he has been for nearly fouI years member
of the Lincoln club. was one Of the first
members of the Young Mems Blaine club,
and has been twice elected vice president
and is now a director of the latter popular
republican organization, ought TO have been
proof enough to his critics, TO say nothing
of the fact that his name can be found in
the printed list of registered voters of pre-
cinct of the Twenty-first ward. as pub
lished by the board of elections.
But TO settle all dispute, Mr.. Boyle
desires it known that he has been
continuous resident of the United
States for twelve years, that he took out his
first naturalization papers at the four courts.
ST. Louis, Mo-, and his final papers, five
years having TO elapSe under the law in
the u. S. court at Cincinnati on June IS,
1883. The local papers mentioned it at the
time. Mr.. Boyle has voted at every election
held in Cincinnati since that time, and is
very proud of his American citizenship. 1t
might be observed that theIe are not few
naturaliZed citizens in this country. and
that Mr.. Boyle did not waste much time in
ayailing himself Of the glorious privilege Of
enrolling himself among them. Those who
desire TO see his naturalization papers can
do so at any time by calling upon him.
Perhaps he has been too enthusiastic a re-
publican to suit some people: and in the
performance Of his duties as a citizen and
newspaper man. he may have occasionally
trodden upon the toes of certain gentlemen
who are now SO sensitive about his appoint
ment TO public office; but in abusing Mr..
Boyle for being an alien they have--well.
lets say they have made mistake. for
which he bears them no malice.

The Baobab Tree in Africa.

One marked feature of the Lowanda
district is the prevalence of the baob tree,
that vegetable Falstaff which every one
who has campaigned in the eastern
Soudan will remember to have been
dotted by hundreds over the burning
plains of Darfur and KOrdofan. A strange
looking object il is, with its huge hulging
barrel of a trunk and its outspread
branches, irresistibly suggesting an enor-
mously fat man who has wedged himself
into tight suit Of black and is fiingiug
his arms wildly about him in an agony of
suffocation. On the uplands one meets
at every turn the stiff, wiry, ponglike
shoots of the I'm lky euphorbia, so called
from the white SIP which oozes from it
whenever twis Is broken. But of other
vegetation, thanks To the prevalent want
Of rain, there Is little If any in the imme-
diate neighborhood Of the townAAfrics
